**__Kronos Facts__** Kronos is the son of Ouranos and Gaea, the youngest of the Titans. Kronos dethroned his father, with the help of his mother, and became the ruler of the universe. He then married Rhea, his sister, who gave birth to the great Gods. So his sons would not over throw him, he swallowed each of his children when born. However, when his last son, Zeus, was born, Rhea hid her baby on the island of Crete, and instead gave Kronos a stone wrapped in clothes. When Zeus became older, he challenged his father, and forced him to vomit up his brother and sister gods, Poseidon, Hades, Demeter, Hera and Hestia. The Cyclopse, who Zues freed, fashioned the famous thunderbolts and lightning for Zeus as a thank you present. These weapons were important in the defeat of the Titans (in a battle known as teh Titanomachy) by Zeus and his god brothers and sisters.
